Official summary, as published

The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of two minutes and 57 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2023. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D33, described the UAP as flying near the surface of the ocean and making multiple “90-degree turns” at approximately 80 miles per hour.

Video Description:

00:04: An area of contrast enters the sensor field-of-view from the bottom left quarter of the screen.

00:07-00:19: The area of contrast moves back and forth horizontally across the field-of-view as the sensor pans to track it.

00:20-01:00: The area of contrast remains generally centered within the sensor field-of-view.

01:00-02:01: The sensor designates the area of contrast with a blue reticle, synchronizing its motion with the area of contrast’s relative position.

02:02-02:21: The sensor engages a contrast filter to better differentiate the area of contrast from the background.

02:22: The area of contrast becomes indistinguishable against the background, and the reticle drops its lock.

02:27-02:57: After losing lock, the sensor rapidly cycles zoom levels and contrast thresholds.
